Synopsis

In Pongwiffy and the Important Announcement , Pongwiffy and her fellow Witches from Witchway Wood are in a spin. Grandwitch Sourmuddle is going on holiday!

Grubtown Tales: The Great Pasta Disaster : in this special World Book Day Grubtown Tale , Farflung Heaps, self-appointed leader of the Angry Mob becomes so furious about being served floppy lettuce that he challenges the restaurant to a 'pasta taste-off' with truly explosive results.
